We've posted quite a few videos in the past, on freeze drying various items. The most common question get asked is "Ok that looks great, but how much it cost in electricity to run a cycle?" Today, we'll do an experiment while freeze drying some eggs, and see just how much it costs to run a cycle. Here in Michigan, electricity costs on average about 19 cents per kWh (per 1000 watts used). If you want to lookup what it's like where you live, see this site: https://www.bls.gov/regions/midwest/data/averageenergyprices_selectedareas_table.htm Note: The eggs were not pre-frozen prior to starting the cycle. We also lost an unknown amount of time due to not closing the door properly when we started the cycle. So our experiment is a "worst case" scenario for sure.
